Leicestershire is a county of slate-roofed brick terraces, ironstone villages and substantial new development. That is exactly the kind of building stock a fitted home office has to be drawn around, so we allow for it at survey stage rather than on fitting day — walls get checked for wind and plumb, floors for level, and the setting-out is taken from the worst reading, not the best.
How we approach it
The difference between a fitted job and a fitted-looking job is the setting out. For home offices & studies in Leicestershire we rod the job first, so what arrives on site already accounts for the bows, the skirting and the ceiling line.
How we build it
Carcass work is birch ply or MR MDF depending on span and load. Face frames and doors are solid hardwood. Everything is machined on the same setting so stiles, rails and reveals line through, and shadow gaps stay parallel from one end of the run to the other.
Finish and materials
You can have it primed for your own decorator, sprayed in any RAL or heritage colour, or left in oiled timber. Oiled finishes can be refreshed at home; sprayed finishes are harder wearing and are what we recommend for kitchens and anything at knee height.

What happens next
Four steps, no surprises
Survey
A joiner visits, measures the opening, checks for level and plumb, and talks through how you want to use the space.
Drawings & quote
You get a setting-out drawing and a fixed written price. Nothing is ordered until you have approved both.
Workshop
Parts are machined, assembled and finished under cover while the site carries on with other trades.
Fit & handover
We fit, scribe, adjust and touch in, then walk you through care and adjustment before we leave.
Straight answers
Home Offices & Studies in Leicestershire — common questions
What lighting works for a home office?
Light from the side rather than behind or in front, plus a task lamp. A window directly behind the screen causes glare; directly in front causes silhouetting on video calls.
Can it be closed away when not in use?
Yes — bifold or pocket doors over the whole run turn it back into a cupboard at the end of the day. It is the single most requested feature in home office work now.
Can two people work in the same run?
Yes, with 1,400mm per person as a working minimum. Facing each other across a shared worktop needs a monitor screen between or you will spend the day looking at each other.
Should the desk be at standard height?
740mm to 750mm suits most people in a normal chair. If you want a sit-stand position, we build the run around a proprietary electric frame rather than making the top fixed.
Can you match existing joinery in the house?
Yes. We take a profile of the existing skirting, architrave or door and either match it from stock cutters or have a cutter ground so the new work runs identically. Matching an old paint colour is straightforward; matching aged oak takes a sample panel and a couple of attempts, which we build into the programme.
